Disneyland turns 68 today. Even as Disney the company and its CEO mistreats and alienates creatives and other employees, Disneyland remains a unique combination of artistry, storytelling, and history.
, two of the few attractions that have remained open since 1955, I’ll find myself thinking of my mom as a young girl watching that telecast in a small town in North Carolina, wishing she could somehow visit California. Perhaps one day we’ll be able to visit it together. Despite the expense, and despite the increasing reliance on corporate cross-promotion, you can still feel that connection to the past, to the youthful excitement of family members both here and gone.
Dwelling on the past at Disneyland isn’t an accident or a weird quirk of my own overly nostalgic brain. It’s baked into the experience, as intentional as the gift shops regularly spaced out throughout the park. Although Disneyland has opened and closed many attractions throughout the years, and over the last couple of decades has taken to retrofitting preexisting rides to tie in to recently popular movies, it still purposefully cultivates a sense of tradition.
This tradition and nostalgia is why it can hurt when Disney decides to remove something we’ve come to love. I still mourn the loss of 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea at Disney World, and can’t imagine going to anthat doesn’t have the now shuttered Maelstrom. One reason I prefer Disneyland today to the Orlando park that I went to regularly as a child is that Orlando ripped out Mr. Toad’s Wild Ride in 1998, while it still survives in Anaheim.
